Fabric - Raffia - Kuba – Democratic Republic of the Congo

This fabric comes from the Kuba people, established in the Kasai region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Renowned for their rich artistic tradition, the Kuba are particularly known for textiles made from raffia fibers. Their creations are distinguished by the complexity of their geometric motifs, the precision of their composition, and the variety of their adornments. These textiles hold an important place in Kuba cultural life and testify to a craft handed down through generations.

Made from woven fibers and carefully decorated, this fabric features a set of geometric motifs characteristic of Kuba aesthetics. Variations in form, texture, and visual rhythms create a dynamic composition that catches the eye. As both a textile work and a decorative element, this piece highlights the richness of Kuba artistic expression while fitting harmoniously into a contemporary aesthetic.
